Description

This modpack adds realism and RPG-style progression to Minecraft. It also improves on the exploration, adding a lot of content without feeling overwhelming (although keep in mind it is still quite challenging). For certain aspects of the gameplay, I took some inspiration from RLCraft.

🔸 New survival mechanics like thirst and body temperature
🔸 Horror-style new creatures
🔸 Improved 1st and 3rd person perspectives
🔸 RPG-style skills development
🔸 Semi-realistic Blocks and liquids physics
🔸 New and improved dungeons and structures
🔸 Mowzie's mobs (check out the best bosses mod!)
🔸 20+ new biomes



Tools and Armor Strength:
- Ruby and Sapphire equipment is stronger than Diamond, due to the gems' rarity.
- Topaz tools and armor are a bit weaker than Diamond.
- Emerald and Amethyst are a bit stronger than iron but weaker than Topaz.
- Quartz tools and armor are a bit weaker than iron.

Installation
This modpack was made for the CurseForge launcher. Installing it on other launchers may bring some issues like missing features or unexpected crashes.

Optifine:
Optifine SHOULD be compatible but I stopped testing with it because it prolongs loading screens*.
*Before Installing Optifine:
- Remove the following mods:
- Rubidium
- Magnesium/Rubidium Dynamic Lights
- Magnesium/Rubidium Extra
- Oculus
- I will not provide support for anything Optifine-related
Here's a tutorial on how to add Optifine to your Modpack:
